The FAMILY God's Weapon for Victory Robert Andrews |
$ 10.95 |
| On the subject which is close to all our hearts deals with many of the issues we all are challenged by as homeschooling families. Beginning by setting out the roles of husbands and wives and then on to children (including a treatment of discipline) this book sets out to equip families to be the very best they can be. There is also thought-provoking discussion of 'family planning' and "courtship"'. I like the comment on the back cover which states "This book is a bit like Narnia's Aslan - it is not safe, but it is good." Be prepared to be challenged and changed by this book. | ||

Home Grown Kids Raymond and Dorothy Moore |
$ 5.95 |
| HOME GROWN KIDS (or children!) The Moores believe that many education problems as well as potentially severe damage to family moral and spiritual values can arise from too much formal school too soon. In Home-Grown kids they present well-documented evidence for these conclusions, and they urge parents to consider the option of home teaching, especially in the early years. | ||

Better Late Than Early: A New Approach to Your Child's Education Raymond and Dorothy Moore. |
$ 5.95 |
| Read, sing and play with your children from birth. Read to them several times a day, and they will learn to read in their own time as early as 3 or 4, but usually later, some as late as 14. Late readers are no more likely to be retarded or disabled than early ones. They often become the best readers of all with undamaged vision and acute hearing, more adult-like reasoning levels, mature brain structure less blocking of creative interests. Yet late readers are often falsely thought to be in need of remedial help. If you have any doubts about your youngsters, have a specialists check vision and hearing possibly see a neurologist if there are no problems, relax! | ||

Spiritual Mothering: The Titus 2 Model for Women Mentoring Women Susan Hunt |
$ 5.5 |
| Giving encouragement and practical guidance for modern women to implement the principles of Titus 2 in today's church. I found this a very exciting book, if more women took this seriously, we could revolutionise the church and begin to meet needs which currently are being overlooked. This can only lead to a stronger church for us and our children to grow up in. | ||

Shepherding a Child's Heart Theodore A. Tripp |
$ 12 |
| Tedd Tripp writes a lucid, thoughtful and encouraging piece. This book is well reasoned, well supported and well organized. Frankly, I could not put it down, which is saying a lot for me, a busy executive with an Internet Start-up. As a fairly new Christian, I found that the book really informed my method and mode of disicplining my two sons. I realized that I wasn't going it alone. Its not me against my son. My job is to act as God's agent and help my sons develop a godward orientation and understanding of the power of Jesus Christ's atoning death on the cross. If you're a Christian or a seeker or just interested in how to have a fulfilling relationship with your children, this book is an outstanding and truly enjoyable read - Review by : mike@one21.net | ||

Recovering Biblical Manhood and Womanhood: A Response to Evangel John Piper |
$ 25 |
| This weighty volume is subtitled 'A Response to Evangelical Feminism' which makes it sound much less interesting and relevant to the homeschool than it really y is. This is a thorough treatment of the proper understanding of male/female roles which is particularly helpful for parents who hope to train up their children to be stable and Godly parents in the next generation. So much of our culture is deliberately undermining the uniqueness of men and women and this error even pervades the church. We as mothers of boys especially will be vastly helped in our job in the present and will be enabled to help our boys to find the right way for them to develop if we would take time to read and assimilate the essays in this book. I highly recommend it. | ||

$ 29.95 |
| This is an excellent book to have and to use in any language arts program. I've used it with my grade 3s and my grade 4s. I didn't use flash cards as suggested; instead, I wrote the root words out on chart paper and then wrote out any words we knew from that root. For instance, "spec" is to see; knowing this, the students could then define spectator and spectacles. | ||

Dr Peter Leithart. BRIGHTEST HEAVEN OF INVENTION |
$ 7.8 |
| Shakespeare was a great observer, who was able to see into the patterns of human character. Dare anyone say that these insights are irrelevant to living in the real world? For many in an older generation, the Bible and the Collected Shakespeare were the two indispensable books. Leithart's perceptive walk through these plays is written especially for a high-school level course, but older students will benefit as well. The six plays discussed are: Henry V, Julius Caesar, Hamlet, Macbeth, The Taming of the Shrew, and Much Ado About Nothing | ||

The Fallacy Detective |

Zoombinis Logical Journey The Learning Company |
$ 19.99 |
| Not too long ago, Zoombinis enjoyed the good life. Though they all looked slightly different--different eyes, noses, hair, feet--such differences meant nothing to the Zoombinis. And so they lived happily on Zoombini Isle, making small, useful products, which were prized the world over." So begins an unsuspectingly addictive CD-ROM, featuring uncommonly fun reasoning games that require serious problem solving and math-thinking work. Yet the perils that face this cheerful society are not as fearsome as the amount of time you'll potentially spend on this pursuit. Beware the chubby, chattering Zoombinis if you don't want to get hooked to your computer for at least 90 minutes a session! | ||

The Grapes Of Math Gregory Tang |
$ $16.95 |
| Greg Tang shows readers creative ways to use patterns and combinations of numbers to solve math puzzles quickly and effectively. The Grapes Of Math by Gregory Tang and Harry Briggs has one genre of math problems presented in an amusing fashion with good art. The genre is patterns of objects with breaks in the patterns. The children are expected to look at the patterns as groupings or shapes to figure out the total number of objects without counting one-by-one. This is a good book. The kids like it. The problems are amusing, even bordering on tickling. My only problem with this book is that an overview of methods for solving the problems should be at the beginning. But so what? There are a few ways to look at the problems and the kids actually sit down to do them without being pestered. | ||
